That's why fuel cells never caught up. Trying so hard for an approach that looks far more sophisticated, and in fact it is, has a price the average Joe is not willing to pay and maybe can't actually afford. Durability of the membranes of a fuel cell and some eventual difficulty to recondition them, while it may seem easier to overhaul a traditional ICE, are also likely to be a deterrent against FCEVs.
